SSH Session
Menu path:
Setup > Sessions > SSH
This section describes the procedure for configuring an
SSH session
.
Use the SSH session to launch a remote application on the host via SSH (Secure Shell) and display it on the
terminal. SSH allows secure, encrypted communication between two hosts or host and terminal via an
unsecured network. X11 connections can also be routed via this secure channel.
Command
All necessary entries for creating an executable command to
remotely launch the application via SSH
User name (remote)
Name of the remote user - The selected user must have a user
account on the remote host.
Computer (remote)
Name or IP address of the remote host from which the remote
application is launched.
Command line
Allows you to enter the name of the application program which
is to be launched.
Options
Forward X11 connection
X11 connections are automatically forwarded to the remote
computer so that each X11 program launched from the shell or
the command passes through the encrypted SSH channel. The
authentication data are also defined automatically. This option
is enabled by default.
Enable compression
Reduces the amount of data transmitted via the data channel -
This option is disabled by default.
Get protocol version
You must prove your identity to the remote host using one of
the various identification methods. These depend on the
protocol version used. In this area, you can obtain details of the
protocol version after opting for a particular identification
method.
You will find detailed information on SSH and the various authentication methods on the relevant
pages of the manual for your server operating system.
